Arithmetic groups are generalisations, to the setting of algebraic groups over a global field, of the subgroups of finite index in the general linear group with entries in the ring of integers of an algebraic number field. They are rich, diverse structures and they arise in many areas of study. This text enables you to build a solid, rigorous foundation in the subject. It first develops essential geometric and number theoretical components to the investigations of arithmetic groups, and then examines a number of different themes, including reduction theory, (semi)-stable lattices, arithmetic groups in forms of the special linear group, unipotent groups and tori, and reduction theory for adelic coset spaces. Also included is a thorough treatment of the construction of geometric cycles in arithmetically defined locally symmetric spaces, and some associated cohomological questions. Written by a renowned expert, this book is a valuable reference for researchers and graduate students.

The present volume contains Friedrich Hirzebruch's works from 1987 until 2012. The volume, edited by Joachim Schwermer, Silke Wimmer-Zagier and Don Zagier, includes all of Friedrich Hirzebruch's mathematical publications from this period as well as two lecture reports written by him.

Since its publication, C F Gauss' "Disquisitiones Arithmeticae" (1801) has acquired an almost mythical reputation, standing as an ideal of exposition in notation, problems and methods; and as a source of mathematical inspiration. This title assesses the impact of the "Disquisitiones", in the two centuries since its publication.

Cohomology of arithmetic groups serves as a tool in studying possible relations between the theory of automorphic forms and the arithmetic of algebraic varieties respecting the geometry of locally symmetric spaces. These proceedings will serve as a guide to this still rapidly developing area of mathematics. Besides two survey articles, the contributions are original research papers. This book of proceedings on automorphic forms, number theory, arithmetic algebraic geometry, discrete subgroups of lie groups and representation theory is intended for researchers and graduate students in the above fields.

Since its publication, C.F. Gauss's Disquisitiones Arithmeticae (1801) has acquired an almost mythical reputation, standing as an ideal of exposition in notation, problems and methods; as a model of organisation and theory building; and as a source of mathematical inspiration. Eighteen authors - mathematicians, historians, philosophers - have collaborated in this volume to assess the impact of the Disquisitiones, in the two centuries since its publication.
